I've read on the house rabbits board that this can be normal but just wondering if any one has dealt with it before. The brand new doe bunny kit I got today has peed twice and both times is a reddish color. I'm worried but she seems okay otherwise, eating, drinking, running around etc.
 
Stress from travelling, not drinking enough water, and too much calcium in the diet can all be causes of red urine in rabbits.
 
Rabbit urine can be a number of different colours. Reddish is pretty common and is not generally considered a cause for concern. Observing the yard in winter where the cottontails hang out tells me that rabbit urine can be reddish, greenish, blue or even purple. I think diet has a lot to do with it.
